Gentle breeze I thought would always caress my face

Then the wind changed ways

I told myself it would swing back some day

Only for it to stay

 

Gust that burst my window open at full midnight

So strong were its cries

I swore I heard their eco in the sky

Seven stories too high

 

Horizontal rain tasting of summer and sand

Tears and drops were twins

I clung to your arm, you clung to my skin

Clensed the evil within

I’m only angry because I’m sad,

and I’m only sad because I care.

 

I wish I’d done things differently,

and I wish you had as well.

 

I’m only sorry because I’m selfish

and I hate to see them go

 

I wish love was all you needed for things to go your way

But alas,

no
